Power Manager for Energy Efficiency
Now, you can feel good about the environment
with the Contour Program Guide. The latest
Contour Program Guide includes the ability to
automatically turn off your receivers after 4hours of
inactivity to conserve energy usage in the home. If
you do not use your remote control to perform any
kind of activity on your receiver, then the receiver
will automatically turn off after 4hours of inactivity.
A minute before a receiver turns off, it displays a
warning alert that instructs you to press the SELECT
button to prevent automatic turning off of your
receiver. If there is nobody present to respond to
the alert, then your receiver will automatically turn
off after 1 minute.
By default, your receivers will automatically turn
off. To change from automatic to manual turn off,
begin at the Receivers Menu:
1. Press the RIGHT arrow or SELECT button to open the Receivers Menu in the center card.
2. Use the DOWN arrow to highlight Power Manager and press SELECT or RIGHT arrow. A Power Manager Menu
will display in the left card.
3. Press the RIGHT arrow or SELECT button to highlight Receiver Power Menu options in the center card.
4. Use the DOWN arrow to highlight Power Off Manually and press SELECT to change your receiver to power
off manually.
Front Panel Status
Additionally, you can change the front panel display (clock) to power off when the receiver powers off for additional
energy savings. You can control the front panel display to choose whether it is always on or on only when the receiver
is on.
To change the front panel status, begin at the Receivers Menu:
1. Press the RIGHT arrow or SELECT button to open the Receivers Menu in the center card.
2. Use the DOWN arrow to highlight Power Manager and press SELECT or RIGHT arrow. A Power Manager Menu
will display in the left card.
3. Use the DOWN arrow to highlight Front Panel Status to open its options in the center card.
